Call for abstracts: ASME IMECE symposium on Material Processing of Flexible/Emerging Electronics, Sensors, and Devices

Dear colleagues,

The technical meeting of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers International Mechanical Engineering Congress & Exposition (ASME IMECE) will be held online on November 15-19, 2020. As part of this meeting, we are organizing Symposium 3-19 on “Material Processing of Flexible/Emerging Electronics, Sensors, and Devices.” We would like to invite you to submit an abstract or forward to any interested parties, e.g., your students or colleagues. The deadline for abstract submission is July 31, 2020.

This topic/symposium will cover experimental, design-related, and mechanics-based efforts toward manufacturing or fabricating flexible/emerging electronics, sensors, and devices.  Sessions might include materials research or processing techniques related to the following areas:

   ·      Modified conventional semiconductor-based processing for large-scale flexible devices

 ·        Materials for biological/human-based monitoring of performance or other factors

 ·        Contact printing/soft lithography and printed electronics

 ·        Additive manufacturing of 3D architected electronics

 ·        Design/fabrication of elastomeric actuators

 ·        Electroactive polymers

 ·        Transparent electronics

 ·        Novel stretchable or flexible substrates

 ·        Energy harvesting

 ·        Wearable devices

 ·        Skin-like sensors

 ·        Artificial intelligence in electronics and sensors
